Exploring new directions in romantic fiction, this story is told from two points of view as impassioned lovers experience their relationship from their uniquely different perspectives, embarking on separate personal journeys that ultimately lead them back together.

  A few days after 9/11, Ali awaits a reunion with Duanis, her estranged, long-time lover. We then flash back to their obsessive love affair since the moment that they met. Over distances and years, a secret unfolds of a cosmic meaning behind their yearning to be together.

  “...an intriguing arabesque, it’s well paced and passionate — an exciting and original novel.”
